With the feedback that was given from the War Bonds contest we sat down and thought about how we could incorporate that into a fun and interesting event that could include people, be skill based, have participation rewards, and scaling rewards based on difficulty of the task. This was not an easy feat! However I am here to today to present to you Blitz Bingo!

Blitz Bingo is a two week event that will give players the opportunity to win Gold, Premium Time, and Tanks! Let's get into the details!

Blitz Bingo

Duration: November 16th 3PM PST (6PM EST) - November 27th

Rules

Players must complete the task squares listed on the Blitz Bingo card in order to achieve one of the following goals:

5 in-a-row - Complete squares so that they form a line of 5

4 Corners - Complete the 4 corner squares and the middle square

Blackout - Complete all of the squares

Each square must be a separate battle (* Squares with an asterisk are exempt from this rule)

Only one entry per player

The rewards for completing the goals do not stack with each other

All valid entries will win

Please try and only post entries in this thread!

All posts that post an embedded image instead of hyperlinked text will be deleted

Players whose "EDIT TIME:" time and the time they edited the post do not match, will not be able to win the M22 Locust

Rewards

There are several ways to win with different rewards for each! Let's start out with the standard participation rewards.

5 in-a-row - 14 Days of Premium Time

4 Corners - 250 Gold + 14 Days Premium Time

Blackout - 500 Gold and 30 Days Premium Time

In addition to this the first person to complete each of the goals will receive an M22 Locust! Unfortunately our Club Wargamers are unable to participate in this portion of the contest due to having prior knowledge of what the tasks are, sorry guys but have to be fair!

On top of all of this, we wanted to add in a competitive aspect to this in addition to the M22 Locust. That is when we came up with the bonus square!

Bonus Square

The bonus square can be identified by Orange Background and Bold Blue Letters.

If a player uses the bonus square in their valid entry they will be entered into a competition to win a Fury tank!

The Bonus Square is not in one of the 4 corners so the only people that can be entered are people who complete the 5 in-a-row or Blackout options.

We will be tracking the Win Rate of all players during the contest. The top 20 players who use the bonus square in their valid entries and have played at least 400 battles over the duration of the contest will receive a Fury tank!

In addition anyone who played a minimum of 800 battles and maintained a 58% Win Rate, while using the bonus square in their valid entry, will automatically receive the Fury Tank as a reward. These people will not be counted towards the top 20 list.

If I complete the Bonus Square and hyperlink an image to the text, does that mean I am entered into the contest to win a Fury?

Nope. Just completing and linking the Bonus Square is not enough, the square itself must be used in the way you win. One of the 5 in-a-row or as part of a completed Blackout entry.

My entry got deleted because I accidentally embedded the image instead of hyperlinking! Can you restore it?

No. I am going to have to keep this as a rule for both the sanity of myself and the safety of mouse wheels and swipe fingers everywhere.

Please?

No.

I forgot to enter my EDIT TIME in my post! Am I disqualified from getting the Locust?

Depends, The last edit you do to complete your entry must have that time in it. If it was your last entry - you can re-edit the post and post the time you made that edit, that would work. If it is not your last entry to finish your win condition, then it isn't a big deal, since you will have to edit the post again anyways and can fix it at that time.

What happens if I am trying to get a Blackout, complete the 4 corners and 5 in-a-row goal, with the bonus square, but fail to complete the Blackout goal?

Unless otherwise specified in your post, you will get the highest reward you have completed. For this example, if they did not specify they wanted to use the 5 in-a-row with the bonus square, so they would get the 4 corners reward.

Do my screenshots have to be taken during the contest? Or can I start early use an old amazing game screenshot I saved?

Only screenshots taken during the contest will count. If it is found that someone is using older screenshot it will be treated as cheating and they will be disqualified.

Once I hyperlink an image to a square, can I change my mind and use that game for a different task square?

Sure! Just keep in mind that that battle can only be used to complete one task square, so choose carefully!
